friday finds: camera cake, felt flowers, and natural beauty.

Hello friends!

Wow, I feel like I haven't written a just-for-fun blog post in a while. I've kinda been slacking in the bloggy world lately.

Life has been very busy lately...but it's been a good kind of busy. :) Lots of photographing has been taking place, and that's made my heart happy. This weekend we don't have a wedding or shoots...or anything, and I'm looking forward to some time just spent with my man (and my puppy) enjoying this beautiful spring weather!

I hope you all will have an absolutely amazing weekend. In the meantime, here are some fun finds I've discovered around the web this week:

I smiled so big when I saw this amazing groom's cake! Click on the link for more pictures of it...it made me smile. :)


A friend of mine recently got married, and these were her handmade felt bouquets made my Princess Lasertron. I couldn't get over how intricately detailed these things were! You should definitely check out her website and see all the pretty creations she makes. She also makes beautiful hair accessories!


One of my pet peeves as a photographer (and as a person) is overly touched up and photoshopped images of people. I'm a big fan of natural beauty, and it makes my heart sad when I see photos of people who look like a plastic Barbie doll. With that said, I was absolutely thrilled when I saw that Jessica Simpson was on the cover of Marie Claire completely without makeup and airbrush retouching! If you look really closely, you can even see little bumps on her skin in this photo. Love it!


And lastly, this theme song video by the Girls with Glasses Show is so pretty and fun...I've watched it at least 5 times now. :)


HAPPY WEEKEND! :)

  6. Photo retouching is the art of making beautiful pictures appear extra-ordinary. It is the technology which helps in hiding all the flaws of that model appearing in that particular photograph.More Help
